| Popis | The Hindu Kush-Himalayan (HKH) region is covering some 3500 km over eight countries from Afghanistan in the west to Myanmar in the east. This region is world's youngest mountain range offering highest altitudinal variation on Earth with extreme climatic contrasts. Despite such unique features, very less is known in terms of taxonomic knowledge of aquatic macroinvertebrates from this region. This paper introduces 8097 macroinvertebrate taxa. |
